Adjusting loft
Is it possible to adjust the loft on fairway woods? I would like to change the lofts on my fairway woods but I'm not sure if it can be done or if it's a bad idea to do so. Anyone know?
Thanks

You'd have to talk to a very experienced clubmaker(very few imo) who has experience in grinding metal woods or bending the hosel. Back in the old days I believe this task was a bit easier since woods were made out of wood. Why would you want to do that may I ask? There are other clubmaking ways to go about this such as lead tape,softer shaft etc..Steel shafts can slightly be bent with a shaft bending block but you can only grind and bend so much.

I just would have thought that the more important clubs to have a standard loft spread would be your mid to low irons where knowing the spread will allow you to make a proper club selection for attacking the green or choosing shot placement.

Just a suggestion. Would it not be easier to practice 3/4 swings and griping up or down on the club to help with any in between ranges and to help give a good spread between your clubs?
Just a thought.
